My entry to Marty`s USA molyWhat I know about USA are mostly from television and hollywood movies since I was little.
I was born in the end 80's, my parents were very busy teaching druing that time, they rarely took me out so I was mostly setting at home watching cartoons(and drawing..), like Disney and Hanna-Barbera, also I was reading comics like Batman and Spiderman(espcially Batman), when I was getting a little bit older like six or seven, ER and The X-files(jeez I miss their huuge cellphone) were just on the televsion, these two are the first American show I watched, then I started getting to know what`s USA like(I know it`s not accurated but... hey I was just a kid), before that I thought USA is a place like you see in cartoons.
The very first movie I saw was Batman Returns(1992) also Indiana Jones, and I`m gonna say the Catwoman was pretty freaky me out at that time.
well anyway I hope you like it Marty, I rarely really draw something colorful so hope you won`t mind if the pages are too colorful.....
by the way I`ve been USA only once for visiting my cousin in NYC, I was really amazed by the urban art there, which is also my inspiration from.

I am breathless. *gasp* Gorgeous!!
I need to get some crayons to color my entry in.
Joyce, thank you SO much. So cool. I can't wait to hold this book in my hands. I don't think that we'll have any trouble getting into this USA themed show here in October. Batman is a particularly dark and American character. And Indy, he's the classic cowboy/spy character.
Masterpiece of illustration.
Joyce, this one is phantastic. I´m so envious of Marty who will receive this great moly. I´m a fan of Batman and you really really got him great. I´m impressed.
Joyce, you must be getting bored by my comments. They must always sound the same to you, but you know that I´m impressed by your art.
Super heroes!!! what a great idea....lucky lucky Marty. and Joyce , the colour balance looks perfect to me....
I have just realised..... thats the first round of your book Marty...its coming home to you. Are we going another round? are there enough pages?
Awww thank you Marty and Kerstin, I really appreciate that :D
*blush*
I rarely draw in colored cuz I`m more comfortable with drawing B&W, drawing colored is quite a challenge for me, I never get the human skin color right..
@Lynne
um, no many pages left actually, there`re 2 and a half spread(which is 5 pages including the very last page) left in Marty`s book. Are we going another round Marty?
Very efficient group, almost sadly so. So many groups never finish their books, this one finishes so quickly. Good people and good themes.
I am all for continuing, though I know that a couple of you have joined new groups and will have lots of work to do. It is okay to let a group end well. As far as my book goes, I kinda like the idea of starting it and ending it. Thank you all. It is incredible. I'm going to show it off to anyone who will give me a moment.
You know, I still would like to see each of us start a book with our own country as the theme. A Brasil book, Taiwan, Italy, UK, another USA book (?). Can I interest you all in that. This would motivate me to learn a little more about your countries, and we could hang out together a little longer.
I don't have adjectives enough to describe that work ! In Brasil we talk a popular quote: "fechar com chave de ouro" means something like "close with a golden key". I agree with Marty, is wonderful masterpiece.
I love all of that book, congratulations Marty :-)
I like the Marty's "Country books" Idea, let's do that in 54 group? I love the diversity and great talent of you all.
Joyce, sorry for my late, I still have your book inside a box with all of my art materials, my new studio is not ready, but I hope can start work tomorrow .
Thank you Ramires
I was tryin' to use acrylic at first before using prisma but couldn`t paint as well as you..

I got the book in the mail today. It is indeed breathtaking. I'm showing it off around work today. Thank you all SO much. It is incredible. I will finish it off, about 5 pages to go. Maybe I will invite someone else to make an entry. Seem an anti climax to finish my own book.
Every entry is amazing. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
